To all whom it may concern: I Be it lmown that I, JOANNY B0YEUx, a citizen of the French Republic, residing at rance, have invented ful Improvements in Sizing Textile Materials, of specification. 7

Wing 1s a the im re artificial textile th eads kind with a substance having like the natural property of giving body thread, preventing it'from entangli facilitating the manipulations to whic threads orfilaments are and durin weaving. coating 0 grease is advantageous for all textile substances but more articularly for Canton, engal, Tusseh and fancy silks and the like, it is also'suitable for cottons and linens. The grease or substance is formed, from a specialzpre aration on a base of-linseed oil and is per ectly adherent and at the supple and elastic and is the threads while they are submitted to the usual operapreparatory to and during weavin The impregnating or coati substance 1s permanent and is not render-:5 sticky by the action of alkaline solutions. The linseed oil boiled or raw 1s apphed In the form of a being. evaporated the filaments remain imiplregnated by the oil and wax. These dry aments have now thefproperties described in a high degree. I

The above recess applicable to threadsfio5 or filaments o silk as described-is also applicable toraw or other silks on bobbins, reels, spindles, or in warps orfse arate t reads. It is also applicable to texti e substances .before' spinning. This preparation 'ves the silk-to which it ispplied an ad or bulk of about'5%. J- 2. For textile substances other than raw silk the same com ositionis employed. but the proportions of the substances used vary according to the added weight or bulk it is desired to give to the threads or finished fabric. For T for instance it is convenient to give an addition of 12 to 15170, for cotton 15 to 30% for this purpose it is only nefcessaryto increase the quantities of oil and' wax in proportion to the weight-or V bulk required. Further one-can add toea-ch kilogram of oil mastic in solution 20 rams or good resin 30 grams. The manipu ation is the same as for raw silks with the exception that after the soaking, the filaments are undone, laid on rods and warmed and dried for 48 hours. i

What I claim as m to secure by- Letters tates is The hereindescribed method of sizing textile threads, which consists. in mixing seed oil and wax with immersing the threads in length of timesuflicient to enable the thread to become saturated with the mixturehnd therea er removing the threads and evaporating the volatile solvent so as to leave the thread impregnated with oil and wax.

"ness whereof Ihave signed this ion in thepresence of two wit I esses.
